The "deployment site," where the 19 firefighters died, is just beyond where the yellow line ends.

Two memorials for the 19 Granite Mountain Hotshots killed in the Yarnell Hill Fire have been set up, including a flagpole erected at the "deployment site" -- where the firefighters tried to use their fire shelters to protect themselves from the blaze.

For today only, shuttles will take people to an overlook from which the flag at the deployment site can be seen in the distance.

This is the first photo I've seen of the deployment site where they died - it makes understanding how they were trapped by the fire a little more comprehendable with hilly terrain on 3 sides and what appears to be one route out. Regardless of how or why, still an unbelievable tragedy for their family and friends and really our entire state.
